Yollocalli Arts Reach opens in renovated historic firehouse

Last fall our project with Yollocalli Arts Reach - the award-winning youth initiative of the National Museum of Mexican Arts - opened up for free youth programming!

Civic Projects took a light-touch approach, leaving room for students to put their mark on the space. “You can see this idea of the architecture getting out of the way,” says principal Monica Chadha. The project was reviewed by Chicago Tribune Architecture Critic Ed Keegan and can be read here. 

In July, Monica joined Yollocalli Executive Director Vanessa Sanchez in presenting the project at the Association of Midwest Museums conference.
